"Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," in theaters June 2, is the highly anticipated follow-up sequel to the Oscar-winning 2018 film "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse."

The "No Air" singer celebrated DJ's fifth birthday with a heartfelt tribute shared to Instagram earlier this month, in which she wrote, "I am so proud of who you are in every moment & who you're becoming with every day."

"Thank you for being love, light, comedy, presence, mindfulness, bravery and knowing...being your mommy in this life is my greatest gift. YOU ARE A GIFT. You are my Sonshine...you'll ALWAYS know, Deej, how much we love you. To infinity and beyond."

Sparks shares DJ with husband Dana Isaiah, whom she married in July 2017.
